6 Cover Letter Mistakes
You Make When Applying
With E-Mail
You Make When Applying
With E-Mail
1. Attaching the cover letter to the e-mail
Copy and paste the cover letter into the body of the
e-mail.
2. Writing your whole life story
in the body of the
e-mail
Keep your cover letter
short.
3. Providing information that is not
relevant to the
position
Give the hiring manager
a brief overview of the most relevant
experience you have, appropriate to the position
they are trying to fill.
4. Excluding
information they’ve specifically asked
you to include
Following
instructions and acknowledging everything
the employer has asked you to address in the job ad
makes you look responsible.
5. Forgetting
to tell them why you’re the best fit
Take the
time to specifically and meticulously review the
job requirements. Then provide detailed information in
your cover letter mentioning how your job experiences
meet those needs.
6. Using a boring closing
statement
Instead of using the same old boring
line, write something interesting to
catch the hiring manager's attention.
